A Karl Fischer method for determining water (dry matter) in animal feed and forages was collaboratively studied. Water was extracted from animal feed or forage material into methanol-formamide (1 + 1) directly in the Karl Fischer titration vessel by high-speed homogenization. The water was titrated at 50 degrees C with one-component Karl Fischer reagent based on imidazole. Ten blind samples wer...

Best known for his contributions to the field of embryology [6], Karl Ernst von Baer [5] also pursued a variety of other areas of study including medicine, botany, zoology, and anthropology. Committing his life to scientific research, von Baer?s work led to the advancement of the understanding of mammalian reproduction, development, and organ functioning. His embryological discoveries ultimatel...

The paper seeks to explain a collection of empirical regularities concerning inter– and intra–industrial wage differentials. For example, the model is consistent with the following well established set of observations: (i) Controlling for other variables, the wage of displaced workers is strongly related both to the characteristics of the pre– displacement employer and the characteristics of th...

In this paper we propose design of three systolic arrays to perform QR decomposition of a square matrix. Our first design is based on Given’s rotation method [1]. In contrast to the earlier designs [1], [2] based on this method, our design uses n(n − 1)/2 homogeneous PEs. Our next design is based on Householder method [4]. This method performs only (n− 1) square root operations in contrast to n...
